"squeak--!"
With a sharp friction sound, the mechanical insect slowly lifted up the container pressing on the hole in the ground, revealing a pitch-black hole.
Yan Fei and Lu Qianyu looked at each other and stepped in one by one carefully.
The tunnel is very narrow and can only accommodate one person.
And because the light was dim and it was almost pitch dark, it was impossible to determine how long the cave was.
Yan Fei and Lu Qianyu had to stick close to the wall and move slowly down.
After descending about twenty meters, the cave suddenly came to an end and the surrounding space suddenly became empty.
They stopped, lost their strength, and fell out of the hole.
Then, they fell into the space below the cave one after another.
It was light and there was no sound at all.
Because there was no light, everything around seemed blurry, which made people feel a little creepy.
In order not to expose their position, they decided to let the mechanical insects emit a faint light not far away.
In this way, you can see the situation ahead clearly without exposing yourself completely in the darkness.
Yan Fei and Lu Qianyu groped slowly in the darkness, taking every step carefully.
After some careful exploration, they finally determined that there seemed to be no one else in this place.
Moreover, judging from the messy furnishings and scattered experimental supplies, this place had obviously experienced a rather chaotic evacuation.
Various instruments and documents were scattered all over the floor, as if people had left in such a hurry that they had no time to care about them.
After a while, Lu Qianyu suddenly stopped and murmured softly.
"This is a cell culture room."
The sound was very small, but it was quiet enough here, so Yan Fei could still hear it clearly.
He was startled and looked carefully at the surrounding arrangements.
Clean bench, biological safety cabinet, microbial incubator, and semi-closed ventilation system.
The light was dim and the room was extremely large. As someone who was not familiar with the structure of a biological laboratory, he finally realized what was happening.
This is the very important cell culture room in the biological laboratory.
However, there are no samples in this incubator now, and all the machines in the incubator are turned off.
Yan Fei didn't ask why Lu Qianyu was so familiar with the biological laboratory, but just gave instructions.
"Pay attention to the information, documents, and research material labels here."
"I have a feeling that here we will most likely find out why the beast tribe wants to target the demon tribe."
Lu Qianyu nodded and followed him silently.
More mechanical bugs scattered and began to explore the laboratory.
They searched the entire floor, but not only did they not find anyone, they also didn't find much useful paper material.
Yan Fei judged that the researchers here had evacuated long before the sandstorm arrived.
By the way, all important documents and experimental materials were also taken away.
The two continued to walk to the next floor.
Walking down the dark stairs, the situation on the lower floor instantly came into view.
What comes into view is a huge piece of transparent glass.
Because the five floors above and below are connected, they can even clearly see the layout of the bottom floor through the glass walls.
Such a huge "water tank" filled with unknown liquid is definitely not just a decoration in the laboratory.
Most likely, it is a large liquid culture dish used to store and cultivate certain organisms.
The shock didn't last long.
The two of them immediately realized that this was a place for observation, recording, and experimentation.
In other words, there may be documents here that have not been collected or destroyed in time.
It’s a pity that they came too late.
This place had been "looted" by Zi Sui not long ago.
Even if there are files left, they are just scattered data without comments.
Before these data were integrated, even the researchers who originally worked here were not clear about the specific impact on the progress of the experiment.
It's part of confidentiality.
The two of them watched for a moment and also noticed this situation.
Yan Fei thought about it and decided to change his strategy.
"Qianyu, look for account books, supplies records, purchase lists, or anything like that."
Lu Qianyu immediately realized his plan.
Through these inconspicuous pieces of information, they might actually be able to determine the research direction of this laboratory.
They changed their target and started searching quickly.
…
At the same time, in Chongming City, deep under the sea.
The originally peaceful atmosphere was suddenly broken and became unusually "lively".
"Hurry! Notify the city gate immediately! We can't let her escape!" a soldier shouted anxiously.
"Yes!" Another soldier responded and ran away like an arrow.
The glazed streetlights across the underwater city converged towards the same goal.
Hu Lingling's figure seemed to have little presence in the crowd.
She was wrapped tightly in a large dark blue hooded cloak, as if blending into the surrounding environment.
However, the pursuers behind her could always find her location accurately.
In front of her chest, she held a flat box tightly.
The box looked quite old and had some strange symbols engraved on it.
Hu Lingling naturally knew that it was because of these runes that her location was locked.
Just now, at the moment her fingers touched the recording and modification technology, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded.
The loud sound cut through the noise in the laboratory, making the surroundings quiet.
